 * Hey,
 * I love the plugin, nice work.
 * I want to drill down into a field and hide specific properties. In my case, Advanced
   Custom Fields gallery arrays have a top-level field called “banner_image” which
   then contains a myriad of properties, including an array labelled “sizes. I only
   need the array from the banner_image field. Is it possible to filter further?
 * I tried **&fields=acf[0].banner_image[0].sizes** to test the output but this 
   does not work.
    Here is a chunk of my JSON for reference.
 * >  “acf”: {
   >  “banner_image”: [ { “id”: 1770, “title”: “IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER”, “filename”:“
   > IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER.jpg”, “url”: “http:\/\/www.example.com.\/wp-content\/uploads\/
   > IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER.jpg”, “alt”: “”, “author”: “8”, “description”: “”, “caption”:“”,“
   > name”: “IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER”, “date”: “2015-07-03 15:15:26”, “modified”: “2015-
   > 07-03 15:15:40”, “mime_type”: “image\/jpeg”, “type”: “image”, “icon”: “http:\/\/
   > example.com.\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png”, “width”: 1920, “height”:
   > 1080, “sizes”: { “blrg”: “http:\/\/www.example.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER-
   > 1920×1080.jpg”, “blrg-width”: 1920, “blrg-height”: 1080, “bmed”: “http:\/\/
   > www.example.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER-1024×576.jpg”, “bmed-
   > width”: 1024, “bmed-height”: 576, “bsml”: “http:\/\/www.example.com\/wp-content\/
   > uploads\/IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER-500×281.jpg”, “bsml-width”: 500, “bsml-height”: 
   > 281, “tlrg”: “http:\/\/www.example.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER-
   > 500×281.jpg”, “tlrg-width”: 500, “tlrg-height”: 281, “tmed”: “http:\/\/www.
   > example.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER-340×191.jpg”, “tmed-width”:
   > 340, “tmed-height”: 191, “tsml”: “http:\/\/www.example.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/
   > IMAGE_PLACEHOLDER-250×141.jpg”, “tsml-width”: 250, “tsml-height”: 141 } },
 * Thanks,
    Tom
